Peaks and Pints Orval Day 2022

Please visit Peaks and Pints as we join the top beer bars from across the globe in celebrating Orval Day 2022 Saturday, May 21. Orval Day celebrates a global ­flavor touchstone, a beer brewed within the walls of Belgian’s Notre Dame d’Orval monastery with a thousand-year history: Orval Trappist Ale. Intensely aromatic and dry, this Belgian pale ale is as complex as it is unique. Orval is bottle conditioned with three different malts, two types of hops, and undergoes complex fermentation with multiple yeasts including Brettanomyces. Peaks & Pints will offer Orval bottles to drink inside our craft beer lodge, or to take home. If you are celebrating at home follow these steps. First, grab your beer-clean Orval chalice. Second, gently pour until you have one centimeter of beer left in the bottle (per the instruction of the brewery). And last but not least, bask in the glory of this unique, Brett-y, dry-hopped wonder of Belgian craftsmanship. By participating in this event, you are also contributing to a great cause. On this day, Orval distributor Merchant du Vin will be making a charitable donation to the National Forest Foundation.
